How To Install Laminate Wood Floor In A Volvo

[@emilmartinez661]

Wow looks great the only other thing I would have done was put sound deadening/heat shield material underneath the plywood floor. But awesome job, looks great

[@raresubstance]

AWESOME JOB 💯👍‼️

[@dhavalpatel7199]

why go through all this headache? I installed vynl wood "looking" sheet from Lowes ($25) over the original vynl , looks the same and it was quick.

[@victorsuarez2954]

Did it take less effort? Why Thanks

[@dhavalpatel7199]

@@victorsuarez2954 it was like 30 minutes, you can buy it from any Lowes or Home Depot, it’s flexible vynl sheet that looks like wood so you can bend it and cut it with a knife any way you want it. Just clean the original surface, use good glue and stick it.

[@victorsuarez2954]

@@dhavalpatel7199 thanks man, I will check it out, so you didn't even have to remove the original? Just put it on top? Sounds way easier

[@Amir-ky5db]

@@victorsuarez2954 Victor so you saying that don't need to remove the old carpet

[@mrbryguy5831]

Lol this is way better than a 20 min job. This is fresh clean and you know what’s under your floor now. And I can’t stress it’s clean now. People don’t seem to understand a lot of shit get under those mats rugs carpet etc. his didn’t look bad but I’ve seen rust holes in peoples floors.

[@DieselBear]

Yeah looks nice and it’s giving other people different ideas how to do it better. It’s gonna be slippery in there if you don’t put carpet

[@lenjames]

First Vinyl plank flooring would of been my first choice. Second maybe learn how to scrib your cuts. Third..never cut sheet plywood unsupported like you did. You where pinching the blade and had kick back and it resulted in bad cuts. I restore boats decks.

Wao wood floor in the truck👍🏻👍🏻

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

Yes, thanks

[@samyrodriguez5036]

Would you need longer screws to put the seats back???

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

no same screws

[@natejohnson2908]

There you GO!

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

tnkssssss

[@samtour8545]

😂😂😂

[@perrylankford4269]

What were you using for adhesive?? I'm planning on doing this to my 1954 3100 Chevy.

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

yes you can do that but you need to do your self use wood floor Laminate

[@khushthind6125]

I’m planning to do the same for my volvo. Only thing that is not letting me do it is How will you change the blower motor if it burns out? (PS changing blower motor needs the passenger floor to be partially removed)

[@Sanjko87]

Change it now before you put it. Even if it’s still good

[@muhammadramzan619]

Good

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

Thanks

[@jamesgordon7608]

People who say quality is poor and the guy didn't know how to make better cuts and the saw jammed. This job was done probably in a day on his schedule. I'am sure your shop could do this and better for million dollars and you have to wait for a year to schedule the job. Really people some of you are brain dead to critique this job. I've been in this industry for long and your not going to do it cheaper better quality and faster.

[@bikramjitsingh4110]

Good work want it to be in my truck

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

That would be cool

[@strategyconsulting4536]

How much did this cost

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

around 150 dollars

[@khonjek125]

Where are you located and how much bro I want mine be done too

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

hello Bro i live in Canada and i did my self and it was around 200 cad

[@Dorian-k6h]

you didn't show how you removed the refrigerator😢

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

sorry for that

[@ahmedjuboori9531]

Wow . The idea is nice but you used the wrong tools for everything lol

[@BadEye3621]

Thing is gonna fall apart no staggered pieces lol

[@thedobermangang3503]

yes it is

[@thedobermangang3503]

i seen it happen

[@khurshadbibi6676]

Technically work gud

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

thank you

[@sano0311]

You could have done better job cutting out correct shape so you dont have those gaps. Honestly wood floor is not better because original floor cancels more noise and is waterproof. That wood floor will get destroyed during winter and that cab will rust from inside

[@stayloaded1959]

I agree . They made the original floors for a reason

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

yeh tnksssss

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

yes i know that but i liked that wood floor thats why i installed thanks for letting me know

[@TheRoadhammer379]

The rubber flooring is not any better, it is the cheapest option for the manufacturer. Rubber sweats knucklehead, in the winter time you will find wetness under rubber flooring, the floor is cold, the inside of the cab is warm... condensation dingbat. They put moisture barrier down, or are you blind? It's not real wood, it's laminate, it must be painful to be so stupid while trying to talk like an expert. 😂

[@getitdone5624]

😂😂 dang road hammer be easy on him. Priceless reply though, I’m dying over here lol

[@Coronado-nz7wu]

With all the power tools I have these guys make me feel lazy.

[@Truckerbabe89]

What thickness wood did you use

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

same wood as we use at home

[@thedobermangang3503]

not good

[@ranaumar8399]

👍🏿👍🏿

[@jmaegm]

Hell yeah most definitely need to do that to the Volvo because their floor design is FILTHY as Hell very super impossible to maintain clean

[@takhirishankulov5168]

Omg how to unwatch it! Holly crap

[@sano0311]

Wrong tools. It looks decent but if you had right tools it would look very nice

[@KrakenVlog]

its like the shittiest work ive seen in a while, this kind of mechanic worked on my truck before i got it

[@dsotojc4645]

😂😂😂 just like me, I take things apart and at the end; I end up with extra bolts and nots and ask myself 🤔where did this come from!!😂😂

[@Muba16]

He might be installing it for the first time. Looks has no experience.

[@truckerslifeontheroad5446]

yes

[@matrixmann7954]

Geez so many haters 😂

[@vladsalonzo]

horrible job. those cuts? those gaps for all the dirt to accumulate? slippery floor easy to Scratch, no proper insulation no noise canceling. 🤮
